Sunstone is a member of the feldspar family that has a schiller optical effect, which is due to reflections from inclusions of red copper. The inside of the crystal sparkles, and usually the color is darkest in the middle and becomes lighter toward the outer edges.

Sunstone carries solar energy in the form of light reflecting warmth and strength. It is a stone of joy and inspiration that encourages independence and originality. It is an abundance stone that attracts good luck and prosperity. Wearing sunstone increases vitality and enthusiasm. It alleviates stress and energizes body, mind, and spirit for metal clarity, physical endurance, and higher spiritual awareness.

An original Beautiful Bullets design. I have been creating bullet jewelry since 2009 and have designed over a hundred different styles and types. I use recycled bullet shell casings, metal filigrees, Swarovski crystals, natural gemstones and vintage glass. All of the bullet casings I use are recycled so please allow for variations and small imperfections.

I started my bullet jewelry line as a peace project, and I continue to donate part of the sale to different charities. I have sent donations to the Peace Corps, the Patriot Guard Riders, the Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund, the Sandy Hook School Support Fund, and the USO. Thanks to everyone who has purchased one of these designs and made that possible.
